Basically, I thought it was too weak, especially when compared to other feats. So, this is about redesigning it. I'll go ahead and just put the original feat here as well...---------------------------------------------------Healing Flames [General] RoFYou can draw energy from open flames to heal yourself.Prerequisites: Base Will save +3, fire genasi or tanarukk.[CODE][size=2][b]Fire Size    Example        Hit Points Healed[/b]Fine        Tindertwig        1Diminutive    Torch            1d3Tiny        Small campfire        1d6Small        Large campfire        2d6Medium-size    Forge            3d6Large        Bonfire            4d6Huge        Burning shack or tree    5d6Gargantuan    Burning tavern        6d6Colossal    Burning inn        7d6[/size][/CODE]&nbsp&nbsp&nbspBenefit: When you use your control flame spell-like ability, you may instead touch the flame and heal yourself a number of hit points of damage depending upon the size of the fire. This counts as a use of your control flame ability for the day. Touching the flame causes you no harm when you use this ability, but if you enter the flame, touch more than just its edge, or remain in contact with it for more than 1 round, you take damage from the fire.---------------------------------------------------Now, on to the brainstorming. I'll just toss out some ideas I've been having.1) Keep the feat as is, but grant 2 additional uses per day of the fire genasi's control flame ability, thus you could also use the feat 2 additional times per day (total 3/day).2) A number of times per day equal to the fire genasi's Constitution modifier, the fire genasi can place his hand inside a flame at least as large as a torch, but no larger than a bonfire, to heal himself. The genasi would heal 1d8 + Con modifier hit points. For example, if the fire genasi had a Con of 16, and he stuck his hand into a torch, fireplace, or bonfire, he would recover 1d8+3 points of damage, and he could do this 3/day (his Con mod).Well, that's for starters. I gotta go to lunch, but I'll try and pop a few more ideas in here when I get back. Let me know what you think about my ideas, and submit your own if you have them. I'd love to see what you peeps can come up with. Have fun! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
